I can’t get into fully open world games anymore. I am more of a fan of open ended levels like you see in the original Crysis. I am a lazy bastard and simply like a decent linear game with good gameplay and story. I will admit I do prefer more open spaces in multiplayer games like what you see in the Battlefield series though. However, the RockStar games are the exception to this for me because they all have really tightly, well-made linear stories, but the world is so well crafted that I don’t mind it being open world.

Prey 2017 is one of my favorite games. Fantastic replay value. 5 hour long runs with each play through rewarding with a different experience for doings differently or out of order. Wish more games were like that.
